Thank you Franco Beretta for the picture.
Erik Braaten of Norway have left us.
I first met Erik at a SE Class race 1971. He was racing a Schulze Hydro Cat powered with a Carniti 65. (Third Picture)
Erik was extremely fast and left us other racers in his “rooster tail”.
A few years later we got better racing equipment and could compete with Erik.
Second picture show Erik waiting in his Clerici/Carniti at Dalälven, Sweden 1973.
In 1978 we raced together in the Nordic OE class race in Skokloster, Sweden.
Erik was involved in a crash and hurt himself pretty bad.
I think that was the end of Eriks boat racing as a driver but now his son Tom-Erik took over the driving. Erik was the perfect crew chief. The father and son won many races together in the OE/F-3 class.
I invited Erik to my birthday party in Stockholm 2003 and he came.
That was very nice of him. (First Picture)
Now Erik is gone and friends and family is missing him very much
R.I.P. my friend.
Nya läckra Nor-Tech båtar med Mercury Verado four stroke kommer till Sverige.
En mycket annorlunda och intressant Skandinavisk marin nyhet.
Ingarö Varv AB på Ingarö utanför Stockholm har i dagarna gjort ett avtal med Nor-Tech i Fort Myers, Florida
Ingarö Varv AB är numera Generalagent för Nor-Tech Boats i Sverige, Finland och Danmark.
Fem Nor-Tech CC båtar från 34 ft upp till 45 ft är beställda varav en 34 ft redan är såld.
Ingarö Varv AB kommer att ställa ut bl.a en Nor-Tech 45 riggad med fem Merc Racing 400R Verado four stroke på Båtmässan “Allt för sjön” 2017.
Nor-Tech fabriken i Fort Myers, Florida har orderböckerna fulla och det är rätt lång väntetid på den nya 45 fotaren som bilderna visar.
Kommer utrustad med en ny design av stor hard top som inte är helt klar ännu.
Tester gjordes på fabriken nyligen och alla inblandade var mycket nöjda.
The boat racing world have lost a great friend and supporter.
Known as “Rulle” Christer Rudolph left us a few days ago.
Rulle decorated race boats and was helping Swedish racers at race tracks around the world for many years.

Rulle helped me with all my race boats and race trucks. Designed decals and much more.
